Not my typical read, but it was really good
Format: Kindle
This is not my typical type of genre, but I found it to be really good. I really enjoyed the female assassin and king romance with the time and storyline. The intricate relationship was not one I expected but also good and added spice to the storyline. Now, the only thing that would have made it sweeter would have been an epilogue on the Mother Queen. Call me vengeful, but she needed more than what was done to her. I wanted to see a snipit of her life in misery. 🤣

The twists I never saw coming
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
Alyx is hellbent on revenge and nothing will stand in her way. She’s such a complex character in that you think she is one thing, and twists forming into another. Joha acts like an absolute dimwit but do not be fooled by this facade for he is a king with nothing to lose and everything to gain. This book was such a slow burn it almost hurt. KA Knight is a master at edging us with a plot that will send us on an emotional roller coaster. I adore her story telling and the fact that she teamed up with Erin O’Kane makes this book even more special. The plot twist just broke my heart. I’m in literal tears writing this.

Awesome story
Format: Kindle
This story was such a fun read. I loved Alyx. Strong FMC who can save herself and her men - the best kind of leading women. Her men who all fell first were adorable. The story had it all - intrigue, villains you had to hate, men that would burn it all.down for their girl, twists you never saw coming, action and an HEA. Really great read!

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
